Inaugurated in June 2017 to honor the ancient settlers of Ushuaia, this sculpture located in the Civic Plaza is the work of renowned local artist Antonino Pillelo. A contest was held in 2015, and his proposal was the winner. It depicts Ushuaia with mountain slopes transformed into an albatross with wings outstretched. Different sequences of history are displayed around the sculpture. What a beautiful tribute honoring the history of Ushuaia!
